Lucan Gray, owner and director of the Custard Factory, said “Digmas is designed for people who want a unique Christmas shopping experience, where they can buy one of a kind or locally made gifts and spend time with their family and friends – eating, drinking, listening to live music and learning to make all kinds of presents and decorations, from robots to festive fabric wreaths.

“In recent months, the Custard Factory has expanded its retail offering. Alongside our long-standing shops like Urban Village, Sara Preisler and Mr Bird’s Emporium, we’ve had a run of new openings.

“As a well established destination for fairs, festivals and gigs, the Custard Factory really is the perfect setting to bring a new kind of festive extravaganza to Birmingham.”

Jack Brabant of Digbeth Dining Club added: “Working alongside the Custard Factory, we want Birmingham to experience a family-friendly and imaginative Christmas event.
